    It may be worth considering a set of wheel dollies, which would make these recoveries simple if you take them and a trolley jack. I know it wouldn't have solved the shackle breaking, but dollies are like putting a car on castors. Great video again. The back bumper is actually an easy repair.

    Rob - don't feel bad about that shackle failing. In the last years the UK (and the rest of the world) has been flooded with sub standard shakles from the Far East principally China. They look good, same size etc but haven't got the tensile strength particularly if pulled at an angle that they should have. One of the refreshing things about you and Chris is you show your experiences "warts n all" that's what makes me and others value and look forward to watching your channel.

    When you pull cars up, always leave the handbrake on - not all the way obviously but just enough to keep some tension, that way if anything breaks it will stop or atleast very slowly roll.

    £100? Bargain of the century. Autotrader values that at around £880 private sale and £1400 for a dealer sale. Clean inside and loads of bits inc satnav. Peugeots are very under rated. Never let me down and I've driven a few for long periods. Toyotas have stranded me though.

    Credit for being so honest on the incident Rob. We've all made mistakes - glad there were no injuries. There are little trolleys available to move cars - don't know if you've seen them but they have 4 little castor wheels and fit around the car wheel. You can then pump them up to lift the car wheel and move it even if the brakes are on. I used to have a flat with reserved parking and the enforcement company used them to move illegally parked cars... .

    I am so happy nobody got hurt but one's pride and a bit of profit. That shackle on your snatch block looks like a cheap Chinese made unit. As a journeyman millwright here in Canada I witnessed a similar incident on my worksite which resulted in a colleague getting pinned and seriously injured. The ensuing investigation determined that the shackle was a cheap Chinese knock-off of a Crosbie shackle (only one I will ever use). Cheers from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

    Ultimately, you’ve still earned money and you’ve saved a car from scrap, it’s a well spec’d cheap car for someone who needs it to start, stop and go safely and, at that money the cosmetics really don’t matter as much.

    I know nothing about cars but I love the channel your enthusiasm and passion is brilliant. I know a little bit about rigging and it looks like the shackle was not load rated. Search load rated bow shackles and you should find something that suits, the SWL should be embossed on the shackle so you always know what you can lift/pull. Also note if you get more than one, the pin is unique to its shackle. All the best and looking forward to the next one

    I’m a boatman and work around big ships, I’ve seen what wires and heavy mooring ropes can do when things go bang, even on a small winch like yours you could have been seriously injured or worse mate!

You can do that with a car. As long as it’s a BFO Jack well located in the centre of front subframe, on smooth ground, you can pull & steer the car to line it up.

    Another great vid Rob.! Don't worry accidents happen. We're only human.
    Loving the quick flip videos.
    Thinking of starting car flipping myself. Could you do a short video on the legalities and legal licences needed to start trading cars?
    I'm sure a lot of viewers would also benefit.
    Once again. Great vid.! Can't wait to see what's under those tarps

    Looks like the shackle pin wasn't screwed in.

    Looks a crakin car. Nice colour. Accidents happen, pleased it wasn't any worse. The next owner needs to try Timpsons for a remote key, think they are a national retailer (key cutting and cobblers) . Got one for my insignia for £30 👍

    Without a doubt, that car hit the house.

      Yeah that would have to be from a concrete to make this damage. It was the house but whatever as long as no one got hurt

    Why not use a jack and wheel dollies in cases like this?

    Yes accidents happen Rob. But the main thing is your safe as cars wall bins ect can be fixed 😀 Invest in some wheel skates then you can move cars round no problem even it the brakes are stuck fast 😄 great cheap care video. Keep safe buddy as we don’t want to loose you 👍🏻 Cheers Stevie

    I don’t think anyone will give you stick, if anything I give you full credit for leaving it in and showing a mistake/accident in the first place and it can only be considered a mistake/accident if you haven’t learnt anything from it. The only thing you could’ve done differently is fit a wireless remote winch and sit in the car covering the brake(s) whilst it’s loaded up, but at least you didn’t run yourself over or get hit with the winch/cable when it snapped, there is a hell of a lot of tension in them.

      I’m using a wireless remote I had to be outside watching as the steering lock was on and it was left hand down 👍

    Looks like it probably did hit the house. A wheelie bin wouldn't cause that much damage.

  • @manicmasterofmetal2620
    @manicmasterofmetal2620 3 роки тому +2

    Hi Rob, I always use rated "D" and bow shackles. They have a safe working load rating stamped on them and are made of much better high tensile steel than the non certified ones and do not cost much more than the cheap ones you get at the auto parts shop.I always use bigger ones than I think is the right capacity. That car probably weighs at least 1000 kg so I would use a 2 ton shackle. That shackle that broke looks like stainless steel and that is definately not the right one for towing or lifting. Anyway mate, I am glad you didnt get your foot run over or worse, and I need you to keep making these great videos. Thanks again for the great free entertainment.

    Hi. I need your help. I have no idea how move down vin number under front screen in Ford Transit. The van is after accident, everything is OK but the vin is slightly up, not at the central of the gap. Do you have any ideas how to do it?

      Not without looking at it but something is still bent 👍
